I am in Australia and the regular price of the drone without camera was about AUD$1200, now AUD$850. I found one bricks and mortar store offering it to me for $769 and I am quite tempted. I guess it may drop further but then there...

I know that the karma has a lot of serious issues reported, there was the recall and they are shutting down the drone departement....my question to you karma entusiasts is that if I can get the karma + hero 6 on sale (amazon), should I go for it?

I know that DJI makes great drones, but the karma grip and having a gopro hero 6 are huge selling points for me, however at the end of the day...

Some of my friends were heading out on a RIB so I planned to position Karma mid channel and video them leaving the Harbour.

However, soon after takeoff the controller said something like "Karma GPS lost use joysticks" while Karma kept heading across the river towards the tower and over some fishermen.

Anyway, after gaining altitude it seemed okay again but I missed my shot

Looking at the csv log...

When I use my GoPro 5 by itself, (without Karma drone) I can use all 4 modes, Video, Photo, Burst, and Time Lapse.

Any ideas what I can do to correct this? Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.]]>2GPS loss / fly awayFri, 18 May 2018 07:44:42 +0000https://gopropilots.com/threads/gps-loss-fly-away.458/

I’m new the flying so please bear with me. I’ve read a lot about gps problems and fly aways. If I did a quick channel scan to see what’s on channel 1 (WiFi) and flew without GPS I am minimising the risk of a fly away
I have bought a cheap drone to learn to fly fully manually before taking the karma out
Any tips to improve signal strength on the karma would be also appreciated (I’m aware of the pro WiFi booster for the controller)
Cheers

If you crashed your drone but still have these parts intact, I don't care if they're scratched, as long as they're not bent.

I'd like to pay $45+ship for the 2 used parts, depending on the condition.]]>FOR SALE: Karma Drone, TXThu, 10 May 2018 18:10:24 +0000https://gopropilots.com/threads/for-sale-karma-drone-tx.342/

After my fly away last September I just couldn’t get over it, I just can’t fly the Karma anymore.

After my fly away GoPro sent me a new drone and stabilizer, propellers, etc.

I have tried to put the “bird” in the air one time but just couldn’t do it, I started sweating and get afraid and to be honest this things are meant to have fun and not cardiac problems [emoji12] so basically I’m selling a drone with no flight hours in it.

Soooo, I would love to get my hands on some propeller guards for my Karma but find zero available.
Not even from a 3rd party!

I had my karma operating in cable cam mode, going from about 2 feet up to 20 feet while I was capturing some footage of dog training outside.

My 2.5 year old made his way outside and ran straight for the drone.
His head made it to the drone before I made it to the controller.
